Some Flax is a great addition to poultry’s diet. It helps make up for the lack of nutrient diversity from grains and pellets to give more of the nutrients poultry would find if they had true free range, It contains Omega-3 for the immune system, heart health and glossy, healthy plumage. Flax also contains powerful polyphenol antioxidants for all-over health and resistance to stress.
Flax has been a not very well kept poultry exhibitor’s secret since at least the start of the 1900s. Back then it was always called Linseed in the UK. The poultry industry, developing good strains of layers and meat birds was big business which meant they took showing their birds seriously, the difference that winning a class could mean better sales of their stock and higher prices. So it was important to have their birds in tip-top condition. The poultry exhibitor fed the cold-pressed linseed (flaxseed) oil to get the show sheen that could give them the edge over the competitors.
Before that, if you looked after your horses properly Flax was it was a standard addition to their diet.
